What would you like to be added?
When downloading logs in Freelens, the generated filename should include a timestamp to make each downloaded file unique and easier to identify later.
Currently, downloaded log files can have generic or repeated names, which makes it easy to overwrite files or lose track of when a specific log export was created.
Expected behavior
When a user downloads logs, Freelens should append a timestamp to the filename.
Example:
pod-name-container-name-logs-2026-05-21T14-32-10.log
Benefits
Prevents accidental overwrites when downloading logs multiple times.
Makes downloaded logs easier to sort and identify.
Helps users correlate downloaded logs with troubleshooting sessions.
Suggested implementation
Append the current local timestamp at download time to the generated log filename. The timestamp should use a filesystem-safe format, avoiding characters such as : where necessary.
Why is this needed?
